The law of England and Wales is the stitching of the fabric of today's society. You may disagree with the exact pattern of the stitching, but that is how it is and if you choose to live here then you must accept it. It is a reflection of the accepted morals that people who choose to live in our society must abide by.

Without morals, society would disintegrate, just like without stitching the fabric would fall apart. Those people that live in my society yet do not abide by the law anger me. And this blog is not just about criminal law: the way we trade as businesses and the way we live as individuals is all regulated by our law.

This blog is inspired by a sad story. It is not out of the ordinary or unusual, which actually in my view makes it worse.

Yesterday my twelve year old brother was at school in a P.E lesson. When he returned to the P.E cloakroom his belongings had be taken, including his wallet and mobile phone. A child would have done this. But what this child does not realise is that he has just contributed to ruining the very backbone of what England is made from.

It is generally accepted that those who work hard will reap the rewards. My parents work extremely hard and this enabled them to be able to buy Harry a mobile phone. It was me who got him a wallet. It was part of his transition into a man: he was old enough to have a young man's wallet and to learn about finance and responsibility. I could only afford the wallet because I had earned the money I used to buy it.

When people steal, not only are they gaining an unjust benefit not in line with our society's principle of working for what you get, but further they are depriving my young brother from the benefit of his family's hard work. This outrages me. It goes against everything I believe in and all that my life is based on. I do not want to live with people like that in my society. We do not live in this world for that long and so we should be as happy as possible for as long as possible to enjoy our life. When people ruin our enjoyment of life they also ruin their own learning about life and the knock-on effect can be catastrophic.

The notion I am getting towards is commonly known as 'justice'. Preserving the stitching is, to me, the most important thing that people should be fighting for today. That is why I have invested so much time learning how to stitch.
